Recipe 03 : Mung Bean Salad

The Mung bean has ways it assists in your physical well-being, nourishing you from the inside out. It contains Protein, Carbohydrates, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Magnesium, as well as Copper. This salad is not the traditional Nepali style but we do eat Mung bean dal (soup) often. They are also common in Thai, Vietnamese, Korean and other Asian dishes. Personally, I like the fresh and juicy taste of the sprout itself.

I customarily enjoy eating them as a side dish but occasionally I just throw them on top of a noodle dish. Now, make sure you boil them thoroughly for around minute because the sprouts grow in warm, moist conditions and have a high risk of bacterial contamination otherwise.
